Really Nice Axe!! 8/5 standard setup. Great Sound. Immaculate condition. Bought this new about 10 years ago. Spent most of it's life in it's case. Never played professionally. Reason for selling: bought a new single neck with a pad rather than wasting a C6th neck! $850 shipped to lower 48. Pictures available on email request. bobeldridge@bobeldridge.com

Jim, I'm away from my computer that has my email set up, but thanks for the response. When I go into work in the morning, I'll take some pictures and send them to you. Anything special that you would like to see or know about the guitar?

Hey Bob,
Yes, perhaps you can post here the color, and whether new parts are still available anywhere to expand the copedant. Also case type and condition.
Thanks! |

Jimbeaux, i can tell you Carson Wells is still in business, and I'm sure parts would be available for this axe. I can't identify the pickups, but I have a call in to Carson. He's been a good friend to me for years. Heck of a builder and player also. He's not on the internet, but I have his phone number if you want it. Let me know

Sure, Jim ...
Color, varigated light blue mica .. .combo of light blue, darker blue and white ... sounds horrible.. but it's really beautiful. Yes, parts for changing copedent are still available. Carson is going to start building these again from what I understand. The case is just as great as the guitar .. carpet outside, padded inside, of course.. typical setup in PERFECT condition. The Key head has engraved designs as does the tail. Lots of detail and very beautifully done. I'll get you some pics of the guitar first thing in the am!

Fred, thanks so much for the additional information about Carson. It's really appreciated. I play(?) E9th only and the C6th neck is a waste to me. I was out of the PSG playing for several years and that's the reason this one has seen so little use. Just bought a single neck GFI on eBay and it's about to find a new home in my office. Hence, the CW's gotta go...

I might add the keyheads and changers are hand engraved by a gentleman who lives close to Carson. I've seen another of these blue guitars and they're absolutely beautiful. Setups on these guitars are the easiest I've ever seen. Very simple, but very sturdy. I wish I had my D10 back but I sold it to Ken Higgins.
